An Incomplete Divorce (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 24
They simply stared at each other in silence, and the carriage fell quiet once more.
Transparent sunlight seeped into the stillness—onto her pale face powdered white, onto the violet-shadowed hollows beneath her eyes, onto her lips crusted dry with blood.
Even in that wretched state, the woman was beautiful. Edgar suddenly felt an impulse to tear off his absurd hat.
He loosened his constricting tie. Perhaps it was the premature heat of late spring, but he felt parched.
“Mr. Lancelot.”
Taking his prolonged silence as rejection, the woman called out to him anxiously. It would have sounded far more pleasing if she’d sounded just a little more desperate.
“Edgar.”
Barely managing to feign composure, Edgar slowly uttered his own name.
“That’s enough. Edgar.”
Her incongruously crimson lips closed. Outside the window, the scenery shifted.
Having slipped free from the tall buildings, the carriage now sped across the park. At that moment, those red lips parted cautiously.
“…Edgar.”
He liked the way she spoke his name.
“Speak.”
Edgar’s lips curved into a long, slow smile.
The Villainous Demon Lord Laid an Egg for Her (Female-Dominated)
Several months after transmigrating into a book, Yu Wu found herself facing the demon lord Li You, who could no longer conceal his dragon horns. With one hand on her aching waist and the other gripping a sharp sword, she stared at him.
The demon lord’s eyes were red with fury:
“This is all your doing! Today, I won’t rest until I kill you!”
Yu Wu rubbed her temples. Putting aside the taboo against bloodshed during pregnancy, wasn’t it this very man who willingly walked into her trap that day?!
Warnings:
- Male pregnancy.
- Height ratios are set to mirror typical male-female height proportions.
- Characters include a foot-loving demon lord and an eldest daughter from an immortal family’s concubine lineage.
